MLBB eSports (Mobile Legends: Bang Bang)

Mobile Legends is one of the most popular mobile games in the Philippines as well as in the rest of the other country. Since last year I love to play this online game. although it is not a kind of physical games like basketball but this game is free-to-play for mobile users. Meaning it was an mobile game and at the same time an online game. For me, it makes more accessible compared to other online games.

Most gamers in the Philippines and even in the other country play in Internet because it is more affordable than buying and maintaining their own computers. With Mobile Legends being playable anywhere with just their phones, it is no wonder that the game has been so popular in the region. I did not deny that even me I love to play this game. In fact, believe me or not by playing this game I forgot my problems. And maybe this is also the reason why many people played this game. According to one of my classmates only in this game that he used to become more strong and even speaks a bad words. Then someone asked me what is this game? And how to play this game? So, in order for me to have an answer I searched something about this game.

According to my research this game follows in the steps of multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games such as Dota 2 or League of Legends, the two top eSports titles for computer, which boosted its popularity. Mobile Legends was developed by Moonton and was released for Android and iOS back in 2016. Bang Bang is a multi-player (5 vs 5) online battle arena (MOBA), the game designed for mobile phones. The two opposing teams fight to reach and destroy the enemy's base while defending their own base for control of a path, the three "lanes" known as "top", "middle" and "bottom", which connects the bases. Weaker computer-controlled characters, called "minions", spawn at team bases and follow the three lanes to the opposite team's base, fighting enemies and turrets.

In each team, there are five players who control each an avatar, known as a "hero", from their own device. All the players use a strong tactic in order to defeat the opponent. Heroes can be grouped into 6 different roles, Marksman, Assassin, Mage, Support, Fighter and Tank. Now if you also loved to play this online game what would you say something about ML?
